Fabulous Friday includes Fabulous Recipes Now!

Last Fabulous Friday was a bust (no submissions), so this Friday we will include recipe ideas and here's the first one:

Apple Pear Poppyseed Salad!

Salad Ingredients:
16oz lettuce (spinach or romaine)
6oz cheese - shredded (we like swiss)
1c roasted cashews (salted)
1/2c craisins or dried cranberries (if in door county, substitute with dried cherries)
1 large apple thinly sliced (we like keeping the peeling on)
1 large pear thinly sliced (same as above - we like the peeling)

Dressing Ingredients:
2/3c light olive oil (extra virgin)
1/2c sugar
1/3c lemon juice
2T poppy seeds
2t chopped onions (the finer the better)

Directions:

combine salad ingredients in a bowl

combine dressing ingredients in a separate bowl

toss salad and dressing together just before serving (chilled plates are a nice touch)

Introducing Fabulous Friday at Relax Consulting

We know, We know...the office isn't even really open on Fridays...but...Facebook usage statistics show that in 20 minutes on Facebook, the following occurs:
* 1 Million links are shared
* 2.7 Million photos are uploaded
* 2.7 Million messages are sent
* 1.8 Million status updates
* 10.2 Million comments are made

If Facebook were a country, it would be the third largest country on our planet. Friday is a great day to share with our community of Facebook friends, and an opportunity to share means an opportunity to encourage and inspire. That's why Relax Consulting came up with a plan for Fabulous Friday at Relax Consulting.

Here's the 'scoop':


What: an opportunity to share and inspire

When: every Friday on the Relax Consulting FB page

Why: because we are a community that cares about one another

Who: anyone can participate (but we'd appreciate if you'd like our page)  http://www.facebook.com/successwithrelax

Details: sometime during the week, share a photo, story, joke, picture, or poem with us and we will choose one to share with everyone on Friday.

To "share" - all you need to do is place your submission on our wall. Keep in mind this is a family friendly page and we ask that all submissions be tasteful.

Thanks!
